He’s Just Too Into You
I’ve read the book, I’ve seen the movie, and I don’t think that He’s Just Not That Into You could tell it any more like it is. But let’s think on the other end of the spectrum. What about those guys who are just too into you? I’ve heard countless stories from girls who are scared off by guys who try way too hard and cross the line between sweet and creepy (or pathetic or possessive). I feel for these guys because they try so hard to impress, that they probably don’t realize it’s actually working against them. So I’ve come up with a list of true stories about guys who were just too into their girls, and how it scared them away.
1. He Begins Telling His Family About You Before You Even Know He Has One. This has happened to a few of my friends. In a regular conversation the guy may mention things like “I told my sister all about you.” When the girl’s response is, “I had no idea you had a sister” it may be a sign that you are moving too fast. If you are in the beginning stages of getting to know each other, and don’t even have a title yet, keep it from your family (or at least don’t tell her that you’re spreading the news about her yet).
2. He Won’t Take No For An Answer: Nothing is more frustrating than when a girl really isn’t into you and can’t get you to see this without being mean. So when a girl comes up with an excuse to not go out on a date, just take this excuse and move on. Sure, sometimes it might be a valid reason, but when it’s your fifth attempt and she tells you she can’t go out because her hair is in braids (yes, this is a true excuse I’ve said, or uhh, heard), then chances are you’re bugging her.
3. He Knows Things About You Before You Tell Him: Doing a little research on your girl is fine. For example, it would be cute to secretly find out her favorite flower and surprise her with one. But when you bring up her secret fear of frogs and know the name of her childhood pet before ever having a prior convo about it, she will most likely be creeped out.
4. He Tells You He Loves You Far Too Early. I had a boyfriend once who told me within two weeks of knowing each other he loved me. This was frightening and I had no idea how to respond. Turns out he became a controlling, possessive boyfriend and got engaged twice with two girls within a year of us breaking up… who would have thought?
5. He Gives You An Ultimatum Before You’re Even Dating. When a friend of mine met two different guys, she had a hard time deciding who she liked more. She didn’t do anything to lead them on but wanted to talk to both to get to know them better. When the one guy found out about the other, he told her she had to choose between them. Let’s just say he really made the decision easier for her.
6. When Your Referred to as ‘Brangelina’: Whoever came up with the idea of celebrity name bonding is a genius. But when you come up with your own name combination with your girl and are only ever referred to as this, you may be too into each other.
So there you have it. Just a few of the stories I’ve heard of guys being too into their girl, and how it usually doesn’t work out for them. Remember fellas, girls like a bit of a challenge. Chivalry is still welcomed, and usually very impressive, but in small doses. Girls like to feel a bit of independence too and most will admit they like the thrill of the chase. This doesn’t mean playing mind games. It just means don’t go play scrabble with her grandmother before she introduces you first.
